The Old Bakehouse is a Grade II listed 400 year old former Bakehouse which was tastefully restored by the proprietors Frances and Paul in 2000.

The Old Bakehouse is conveniently situated in the heart of Colyton, an extremely attractive mediaeval market town set in the beautiful East Devon countryside within 3 miles of the sea. The Old Bakehouse is a perfect base from which to explore the towns, the countryside and the Jurassic Coast - now a World Heritage Site.

The Old Bakehouse combines comfort with a wealth of historical charm. Our guests may enjoy relaxing in the lounge before dining in our Bistro and enjoying home cooked food in beautifully appointed surroundings.

Our pretty garden offers a secluded and sunny spot in which to take your ease.

We are happy to receive inquiries for all future dates and welcome telephone inquiries, in keeping with our personalised service.
